Week 47 Ciudad Delgado! 1 YEAR!!!!

Week #46
1/30/17

Hey everyone!! This week was pretty good! This is gonna be pretty fast because we wont have the full time to write because of our activity today! We went to the other mission and we went bowling it was pretty sweet!! But we had an amazing week! We had 4 baptisms, 12 people in sacrament meeting and confirmed that we will have 4 more baptisms this Sunday!! I know that i will be changed this next week because my comp got called to train sooo see ya later ciudad delgado!! I think i have done the work i was sent to do here! The attendance has improved and we have had lots of baptisms but im sad because i wont get to see some of them that i have been able to teach and see progress! I am gonna miss this area! I love the ward and the people and i will miss sooo much some of my converts! This week we were able to work really effectively, we had a crazy week of baptismal interviews interchanges and reunions! I dont have lots of time but i am so grateful for the time i have had here in this area and the things i could learn! i will be a better missionary in the next ward where im sent! I am exited to see what will come!! This week i officially finished a year in the mission! im pretty excited but pretty scared! The time has gone by sooo fast!! I don't feel like i have been here for a year and everyone has told me that the second half just goes by faster! But well see what happens! Thanks everyone for reading!! i promise that next weeks letter will be better!!!

Semana 46! Ciudad Delgado

Week  #45
1/30/17
Hey everyone!! This week was really good but a little bit hard! We finished the week really tired but we had lots of success! 8 people came to church and we will have 4 baptisms this week! We were gonna have them last week but they drank coffee.. but they are all good for this week and we will have lots more as well!! This area is super good and i am sad to think that i will soon be leaving! We have changes on the 8th and i will probably leave.. i have been here for almost 6 months! This week i officially have 1 year in the mission!! CRAZY! but i ill be home in less than a year! Im pretty sure the 10th of January next year! I don like how fast the time is going by but i know that if i keep working hard the lord is going to make it feel easier and faster for me! We have been having weeks really basic and im struggling to find interesting things to write you guys but were working really hard ith lots of people! We have found o many amazing investigators that are o prepared to receive our message! Ill tell you a little about them, the people getting baptized this Saturday are Selena, Marta, Gloria, and Rosa, they are all family and they absolutely love the church! Others are Marcela and Erick, the couple that got marries a few weeks ago! they have both told us that they are so grateful for hat we have taught them and are ready to get baptized! They just need to go to church a few more times! Others are branda and alicia, mother and daughter! They are soo good! the other day we were talking with them and they aid to us elders, i know that you guy come and go real quick but if you guy have to leave i want you to know that you have done something good in this house, were so grateful to have known the true church and we dont feel confused anymore! Another names Javier that went to church for the first time this week and told u he would ike to move forward his baptismal date becue he already knew that it was all true!!! We have a few others similar but they are all amazing and we have really focused on helping them progress and looking for lots of new people! Anyways this was a good week! today we played soccer with the whole zone and i scored 3 goals! Against all latinos!! im pretty stoked haha!! It was lots of fun tyo be able to play again! Finally dont have ingrown toenails! Thanks for reading!! Have a great week!!!  Hasta Luego!

Week #43

Heyyy everyone! !this weeks letter is actually going to be short bcause this week was preetty hard for us! We were pretty sick from monday to wednesday and a little thursday so we didnt get to do too much. We had chikingunia! (idk how to spell that) But it was horrible! its the second time i have had it here and its miserable! i got it a lot worse than my comp but basically i had a high fever and ,y whole body hurt! until i couldnt even move my fingers or legs! pretty crazy but i guess its part of being here in EL Salvador!! So we got to work from thursday and on so thursday was a really calm day.. we couldnt do too much cause we were still a little sickj but we had good visits and were really happy cause all weeek we just got more and more sure that we will baptise like 6 people this month!! We had a baptism on tuesday and it was pretty interesting.. we were euuper sick but we had to go! I thought i was gonna die haha when the service ended i couldnt evern stand up bcause i couldnt move my legs lol! I thought it was pretty funny! And my mouth was like ocked shut and it looked like i was doing a duck face! Ohhhh el salvador! anyways she got baptised and were really excited for her! Friday we needed to find some news so we set off to search in a very specias way! We prayed and preayed and looked on the map for the streets that the lord wanted us to contact and we were able to see miracles! We found some great people that were so posative and we hope that they will progress! Saturday we invited everyone to church and ended up having 6 in church! Very short email but it was a great week! I did not have changes and i will stay with elder artiaga for another change!! Im pretty excited it will be the longest i stay with a companion!! I hope you all have a great week! thanks for reading!!
